The Mighty Accelguard to the Rescue! (718)

Swift Hero A☆celgor VS Cryogonal Man!!

Finally at Driftveil City, Ash discovers that the gym is not currently open so Ash & Co. take a tour of the city offered by Charles. However, when they get to the market, they find a couple of thieves in disguise, only for them to be thwarted by the mysterious A☆celgor, who helps fight crime with his Accelgor. However, things start to turn when the evil Cyrogonal Man appears...

Perhaps it is primarily because I'm tired, but it was hard to care about this episode. Interesting story, probably just poor execution.

The best part is when Oshawott came out, slipped into Cryogonal Man, and destroyed the remote that was somehow suppose to control Vanillite, I don't know what the ice type baddies were trying to, it was really just hard to care with what was going. Probably because this seemed like something you couldn't just pull out your rear end and make an episode about it, it needed to be fleshed out. But let's move on.

So aside from the short appearances of Tepig and Oshawott (especially Oshawott), I found this episode to be pretty "meh"

At least I'm not being overly negative.

Misinterpreting my posts is not your fault, negative repping me, and getting very sensitive about my posts because you misinterpreted my posts however is your fault. Think really hard, before negative repping or making a big deal about my posts. I don't appreciate being negative repped for reasons that are a result of misinterpreting my posts.

Such a terrible episode in which to debut poor Accelgor.. Charles sucked, Freegeo-man sucked, the plot was (IMO) terrible. In fact, the highlight of this episode was seeing Oshawott.. and that coming from me, speaks volumes since the thing usually just annoys me.

Kinda feel like I wasted my time even turning on the PC for it.

OR Playthrough - Final TeamThis won't change often.. I play through the games slowly..

Have yet to see the episode, but what I can see from the screenshots I think it looks like an episode I will enjoy. It is great to have an episode with action after the rather (not fully) relaxed one last week.

00poke_maniac is going to love this:
And this happens twice.

I see everyone had an awkward reaction towards Vanirich. Well you would have the same reaction if your opponent was a giant, floating, ice cream with a face. I'm not able take Vanirich seriously at all.

xDDDDD YOU KNOW ME SO WELL!!!! 8D *saves picture*

This episode seemed pretty good. I just came to the conclusion that:

Spoiler:- important spoiler:

That Dento must be warm and cuddly.

It seems like an action-based, funny episode. Even though I haven't watched it yet but it seems pretty good (I have low standards though )

“...This is a tricky problem, huh. I really, really want to see the other Heroes... and if it works out, I want to make friends with them! If I made friends with six Heroes, I’d be an awesome mage! We could even conquer the world!”

At least Accelgor got a good debut, unlike Lilligant.

You mean, in your opinion, or they just sucked, at what they were doing?

I liked Charles, he was good as a Superhero and he proved that near the end.

As annoyed as I am that I only saw a minute or so of the episode, it still looks pretty good and judging from the pictures, it wasn't what I expected, it was better!

I loved the Pokemon in this episode too and I really think the animation helped with showing off Accelgor and Vanillish.

I just didn't like their characters, which is unfortunate since I thought i'd enjoy the episode (based on the previews).. Ah well, I guess the episodes can't all be winners in everyone's minds. It's kinda like when the Gothitelle episode aired and I enjoyed it when most other people disliked it, but this time the situations reversed.

After 12 years of being a Pokemon fan, I'm officially quitting the fandom. This is not a rage quit and it has nothing to do with the Pokemon franchise. It's also NOT a sudden decision - I've planned it for months but I decided to stay a true, active Pokemon fan until the very last day. The reason for my leave is the fact that I'm starting my studies at the Uni and I decided that it's a perfect moment to move on with my life. I'll never forget all these awesome years and Pokemon will always be a part of my childhood memories. Goodbye friends! Thank you.

Episode was ok to me especially the Oshawott part which was hillarious, and at least the ice mask hasn't officially debuted yet, cause when it does i want to see it in action and not be someone's face mask.

Also, was that a youtube like website the girl was using or was it just me?

I like how the writers build up Team Rocket for their plans. It's always fun to watch them be mysterious and whatnot, to me at less.

Clay appears, seems cool, although he doesn't really come off as someone with a lot of personality(Although I'm going off of pictures and he was only shown for a little bit). Still, I think he looks cool.

The main plot of the episode seems alright, looks like a mix of action and comedy, I can't complain.

It looked like everyone was surprise to see Vanillish, perhaps they were expecting something else...something relating to the mask the guy was wearing haha, too bad Cryogonal didn't debut in the flesh, perhaps for the 7th gym.

Final shot is some sort of rocks on Milos Island, don't know what they are.

TR was there earlier in the episode and there was some sculpture thing at the bottom of the pillar. The rocks at the end were that same sculpture, broken by TR. The gods shall not be pleased about this....

Really, from their interactions, she seemed more like an ex-girlfriend of his.

Anyway, this was actually an interesting episode. I thought that Driftveil City looked a lot like some of the other cities Ash and friends have visited, but the market looked colorful, which was cool. I liked that motorcycles were used without the episode feeling too much like Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. I enjoyed the funny moments, especially the one that involved Oshawott; he was hilarious as always, and if people don't agree then they'll have to post receipts to prove me wrong. Overall, the episode was all over the place, but it worked well. But that Vanillish was trucking scary, so I'll probably have nightmares tonight.
